what a great weekend...

hope everyone is having a great holiday weekend! My weekend was great my mom came over finally on her day off and my little brother and his family came over too. My girls were so happy to see them.
Lani was so happy to see her little cousin Lorenzo. she kept chasing him around and teaching him so many bad things lol. how to climb on grandmas bed and spin and throw himself on the pillows. how to get on top of the coffee table and sit on there. i love seeing them chase each other and giggle at one another.

It was great seeing my family together. i miss my little brother so much i wish we were living close to one another but sometimes you have to do what you have to do to get by. its very true when people say you don't know what you have till its gone. In my case just living far away from the people i love. i hope i get to see my little nephew soon again.
We also got a chance to go spend some time with Jon's side of the family for Jon's nephews birthday party (happy birthday Jordan!!!!). that was so much fun! they had a water slide that leilani liked very much. i was so surprised to see Lani go down the water slide all by herself and to go down the slide with all of her cousins. That little girl does not get scared for anything. makaylah on the other hand went into the pool for a little bit she was splashing in the water but then got scared because there were to many kids being loud and didn't want to be in there anymore and just started crying and looking for jon and i to pick her up. i even notice that she didn't even want to touch the mud. Its so weird because she loves water a lot and just likes anything that has water in it. i hope if we do anything like that again she will not end up getting scared again. hopefully she will do better. she also just wanted to be held by myself or her dad. it took her a while before she felt comfortable to play catch with her cousin and her step grandma. She loved that very much. Makaylah then started to play pass and catch with her aunt Mary. i love seeing the girls play with all there cousins and aunts and just seeing them around there family. I didn't really get a chance to see or spend much time with my family when i was growing much and now i wish i could of but I'm so glad the girls get a chance to.....
